Charleston’s beautiful Cypress Gardens are a joy to visit with children of all ages. Younger children will particularly enjoy learning about nature as they explore the huge Butterfly House which is home to many live butterflies, birds, plants and even an observation beehive. Another of the popular garden attractions is the large Swamparium where children can admire large tanks and terrariums containing local fish, amphibians and reptiles. Older children can enjoy a Swamp Boat Adventure as they paddle along marked trails on the lookout for fascinating swamp animals and plants, while the entire family can enjoy exploring over 3.5 miles of nature trails.
